ACF translation (buttons / Raisely forms / etc.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are trying to translate ACF fields on your site and facing two issues: 1) Text translates well, but buttons and forms from Raisely do not translate. 2) You need to replace images on translated pages, but encounter restrictions.
Solution:
For the Raisely forms, unfortunately, these are embedded from an external source and cannot be translated within the WordPress system. For more information on Raisely forms, you can visit https://support.raisely.com/article/237-embed-donation-form.
Regarding the image replacement in different languages, ensure you are using the ACFML addon plugin. Follow the guide on how to use different files and images across languages with ACF and WPML at https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/translate-sites-built-with-acf/how-to-use-different-files-and-images-across-languages-with-acf-and-wpml/.
If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

philipB-24	Background of the issue: 1. We am trying to translate ACF fields on our site hidden link. The text on the page is translated without problems, but the buttons and forms from Raisely are not translated. We have read the FAQ and forum and tried the ACF plugin without success. 2. Additionally, we need to replace images on translated pages, but there is a restriction preventing this ("This field value is copied from the default language and will be kept in sync ac") + "lock icon" Symptoms: 1. Buttons like Download now and embedded Raisely forms are not translated (even with ACF plugin). There is a 'lock' icon restriction on replacing images on translated pages ("This field value is copied from the default language and will be kept in sync ac") Questions: Can you guide us through the steps or effective methods to translate ACF fields automatically with WPML? How can we replace images on translated pages using WPML despite the 'lock' icon restriction ("This field value is copied from the default language and will be kept in sync ac")?

Dražen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Hello, please note we limit 1 issue per ticket to keep things clear and easy to follow, but I will try to answer both and if needed further help please open a new ticket. 1) I am not sure nor can I find what Raisly is, I have only found next, and as it seems this embedded form from an external source, it is not part of WordPress or something that can be translated inside the Worpdress system. hidden link 2) As for images, you need to follow next guide and add 2nd language images. - https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/translate-sites-built-with-acf/how-to-use-different-files-and-images-across-languages-with-acf-and-wpml/ Make sure you are using ACFML addon plugin and following our guides.
